Title: do I really need to set up 911 on GV/Obi110, if there are 3 cell phones at home? Post by: onepolarbear on November 30, 2012, 10:17:13 am do I really need to set up 911 on GV/Obi110, if there are 3 cell phones at home?
I got rid of landline several years ago and have been using Vonage. I'm still new to Obi110 & Google Voice, but I think I'll get rid of Vonage in a month or two as well. The only thing that I'm wondering about is 911. There are 3 cell phones at home.(3 active lines on Verizon Wireless) In addition, I also have 5 old/deactivated spare Verizon cell phones, but they can dial 911 just fine. I taped the phone numbers of the local 911 center(in local 10-digit form), the police, as well as the nearest fire station on all the corded/cordless phones connected to the Obi110, just in case. In addition, three of my neighbors are police officers(one next door and the others 4 and 7 doors down) :) Having all that available... should I even bother with setting up some sort of 911 dialing on my Obi110? Thanks! Title: Re: do I really need to set up 911 on GV/Obi110, if there are 3 cell phones at home?
